DISTRICT DOWNTOWN DINER
NOT-YOUR-MOMMA'S
District Downtown Diner takes the classics and turns the volume all the way up.
Expect towering stacks of pancakes, loaded breakfast plates, fresh salads, oversized sandwiches, Southern comfort food, and a few District originals that refuse to fit neatly into any category. Shrimp and grits overflow their skillet, breakfast burritos are stuffed with sweet potatoes, chorizo and bacon, and hot chicken honey butter pancakes have earned a fan club of their own.
Everything handcrafted, all day. Come hungry.
